Under Pressure: Microsoft’s Prototype Keyboard Re-thinks Typing

I’m a keyboard slammer. When I’m typing, this poor QWERTY board gets no love. A new prototype keyboard from Microsoft is looking to take advantage of the kind of pressure we put out keyboards under. The device’s keys can register eight different levels of pressure.
Gaming is one of the clear applications for such a device, letting users better control their on-screen counterparts, with a push of a button. It can also help omit mistakes whilst typing.
No word on if–or when–such a device might come to market.
